Outside of the Superpower Relics.
After a journey that was not too long, the cruise ship filled with psychics finally arrived here.
On the deck, dozens of people looked at the island shrouded in mystery and mist ahead, exchanging glances.
This… must be the Superpower Relics that Sky King Wusong spoke of, right?
"No way... The strength of this seal… Is this place really an ancient civilization's relic and not a Legendary Pokémon's habitat?"
Johto's reserve King, One Tree, looked forward, slightly lifted his eyeshade, and spoke.
He couldn't believe that any superpower relic could maintain such a strong seal after the long passage of time.
"Would a Legendary Pokémon even construct relics... It's probably not the work of a Pokémon."
South from the Fang Yuan Green Ridge Dojo and the Maple Siblings spoke simultaneously.
It's no wonder Wusong thought this island was a superpower relic, as the island no longer looked like an island at this point.
After being altered by Mewtwo, it looked like New Island from the movies, resembling a gigantic superpower castle.
Plus, Mewtwo's aesthetics, completely different from that of humans, not only convinced Wusong but also made many others feel it was a relic.
"Even if it's a relic, that doesn't mean there aren't any Pokémon inside…" Nastina stepped forward, recalling Fang Yuan's theory.
Fang Yuan said there might be Pokémon guarding the relics here, and perhaps it's true.
This place was indeed more mysterious than Nastina had imagined, her ability to foresee could not penetrate the seal, but now the biggest problem was, where was Fang Yuan?
He couldn't have really fallen into the sea, could he?
"Hmph…"
Caitlin lightly snorted, surrounded by a vast psychic power, her golden hair fluttering with it. She wanted to try breaking the seal, but from her expression, it was not easy.
At the same time, seeing that many of the psychic masters also found it challenging, Sky King Wusong pushed his glasses calmly and said with a smile,
"As everyone can see, the seal on the island is strong… Even the moves of Champion Level Spirits might hardly make a dent."
"Of course, I'm not advocating for a brute force approach, as attacking forcibly might cause damage inside; I invited everyone here in hopes of leveraging your strength to find a suitable way to break the seal."
Wusong himself had tried everything he could on his end and all had ended in failure. To explore the secrets inside, Wusong had no choice but to ask for outside help now.
"Currently, the biggest issue is the seal itself. As for the presence of powerful guardian Pokémon inside, I think the chances are slim…" Sky King Wusong said with a smile.
"There were no accidents before, which could also mean the other party wasn't home…"
Just as Wusong finished speaking, suddenly, a gust of wind blew inside the island...
The wind stirred the fog, causing it to spread rapidly in all directions at a tremendous speed.
The view ahead became increasingly unclear. Under the cover of the fog, even with their psychic abilities, people could no longer see the island clearly.
This sudden change left Sky King Wusong, who had just spoken, frozen in his tracks.
The other psychics also wore puzzled expressions.
What's going on?
The next moment, their nerves were immediately on edge.
Wusong waved his hand vigorously and shouted, "Quick, send out Pokémon to resist the fog—"
Although he didn't know what had happened, faced with the sudden, eerie mist, Wusong instinctively felt danger!
The others, without much time to think, quickly released their most trusted Psychic Type Pokémon for protection.
Boom!!
With bright flashes of light, in an instant, more than a dozen different colored mental fluctuations turned into a tidal wave that rushed towards the fog, attempting to hold it back.
But to everyone's disbelief, the fog, rolling in like a tsunami, seemed intangible, passing directly through the moves without any effect.
Amongst a cacophony of voices, in an instant, the entire sea area was enveloped in fog.
......
"It seems... just regular sea fog?"
A few seconds later.
No accident occurred.
Everyone was still safely on the cruise ship.
The fog that had just blown through seemed to be just regular sea fog, with no lethality at all.
Although the surroundings became a bit blurred, everyone could feel that the fog posed no threat.
Until Nastina spoke somewhat exasperatedly, "Haven't you noticed that someone is missing again?"
Regular sea fog, how could it not have been dispersed by the psychic power just now?
At this moment, on the massive cruise ship, Sky King Wusong and his Bronze Bell had vanished without a trace.
"Just now, was that... the fluctuation of teleportation?"
Caitlin, who had also been observing the situation, noticed Sky King Wusong's disappearance immediately, and she carefully looked towards where he had just vanished.
Did Sky King Wusong teleport away himself?
No, that's not right…
Caitlin lowered her head. She hoped she hadn't guessed correctly; the island's owner had come home... And moreover, the first thing they did was to take action against Wusong.
Could it be that her psychic abilities had also awakened a curse ability autonomously??
"Uh... I hope Sky King Wusong is alright."
At the same time, the other psychics, prompted by Nastina's reminder, also realized abruptly that Sky King Wusong did indeed seem to be missing.
"Sky King Wusong?"
"Mr. Satoru, please come out quickly."
"He was right by my side just a moment ago..."
"Wait, why did you say 'someone else got lost'?"
......
At this moment, Sky King Wusong stood silently in an open space.
He looked up at the sky, then forward, and, after glancing around, straightened his wine-red suit before concluding,
"Have we... been swept into the ruins by the fog just now?" Satoru asked Bronze Bell, still at his side.
"Bang!!"
Bronze Bell nodded, if this "we" referred to just the two of them, then that was correct.
What happened to the others, it really didn't know.
"Strange."
Satoru's expression finally became serious. He had made two previous encounters with the ruins without incident, but this time... why had this happened?
The only thing he could be thankful for now was probably that he had his Bronze Bell and a host of main Poké Balls with him.
After being serious for a moment, Satoru took a breath and his eyes flashed with brightness, perhaps triggering some special mechanism.
Space transmission technology is not anything unusual in the Pokémon World. For example, inside Nastina's Goldenrod Gym, real space transmission technology is installed. Now that he had been transported here, Satoru's acceptance of the situation was relatively quick.
He calmly spoke, "Since we're in, that suits me fine. Bronze Bell, let's go and see what secrets lie here."
After all, he was one of the Four Heavenly Kings from the Sinnoh Region...
Perhaps, this was not a mishap but an opportunity given by the heavens.
As far as Satoru knew, Hirona, that person, was very fond of exploring mythical ruins. And it was precisely because she absorbed many of the ancient civilization's nurturing knowledge from the ruins that she was able to possess the power that dominates the Sinnoh League today.
This time... it should be his turn, right?
As this thought crossed his mind, Satoru locked onto a building in front of him that resembled an ancient beast fighting arena...
"The architectural style of this building, it must be at least 1000 years old," mused Satoru to himself.
......
"Mewtwo, he says that your aesthetic taste is still stuck in a version from 1000 years ago..." Meanwhile, in the Superpower Castle at the island's center, Fang Yuan pointed to the figure of Sky King Wusong under surveillance and told Mewtwo, who was beside him, in a tattletale manner.
"?" Mewtwo looked at Fang Yuan, feeling that this human didn't mean that.
Fang Yuan shrugged, my point is... the artistic style of your base really needs improvement.
It's still just like the island from "Mewtwo Strikes Back"… eerie, like an ancient relic.
Previously, a beautiful island was abruptly transformed into this.
"Well, consider it a classic remake then..." Fang Yuan scrutinized the video. The arena... had the vibe from "Mewtwo Strikes Back."
However, this time, the trainers invited have changed from beginners like Xiaozhi to a Four Heavenly King like Satoru.
And the behind-the-scenes big BOSS shifted from Mewtwo to "Fang Yuan's Counterattack."
Click.
In the same room, on the gigantic sofa, Pokémon such as Eevee, Glutton, Dragonite, and others, had already grabbed chips, drinks, donned 3D glasses, and patted the sofa in anticipation.
Charge, charge, charge—
Monferno, you've already been powered up, it's your turn to enter.
......
"Not a single Pokémon..."
"Nor any signs of life."
"Truly a hollow relic then."
At some point, next to Satoru, apart from Bronze Bell, a group of Pokémon had appeared.
Magic Wall Puppet, Kirin Odd, Conkeldurr, Hudidi, Elodea... these five Pokémon were the mains of Satoru, each holding King Level strength and trained to their Species Limit.
In addition to his Bronze Bell, which has Quasi-champion level power, coordinated with his superpower, it was not surprising that he could be one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Sinnoh.
By this time, Satoru had reached the Beast Fighting Arena, looking at the ancient traces all around, he frowned slightly; an arena like this, seemed like there was nothing valuable left...
"Better to quickly pass through here and head for the main hall of the ruins," thought Satoru to himself.
However, just as he was about to take a step forward, suddenly, the pupils of Satoru's six Pokémon shrank, and they quickly enveloped Satoru tightly, protecting him in the center!
"Hoodie!!!" Hudidi with a spoon in its crossed arms, stood in front of Satoru, cautiously observing a pitch-dark passage at the front of the arena, with a grave expression.
At the same time, it seriously warned its trainer.
There's life fluctuation...!
This place is not a hollow relic; there is life dwelling here.
And, based on the instinctive senses of Psychic Type Pokémon, all six of Satoru's Pokémon were aware that the Pokémon about to emerge was very strong.
Even though it hadn't shown itself yet, the overwhelming pressure made them sweat on their foreheads, their bodies tense, focusing 200% of their attention.
After the Pokémon showed reactions, Satoru himself also immediately became vigilant.
"Could it be... that both Nastina and Caitlin guessed right?" This was the first time Satoru saw his Pokémon so nervous, and he subconsciously adjusted his glasses, then stared unwaveringly at the passage in the arena.
Thump... thump...
Footsteps sounded, and a figure became clear.
When Satoru saw the slender Pokémon, whose arms and legs were wrapped in deep red flames, with yellow sclera and blue irises, he was taken aback.
"Mon... Monferno??"
"Why would there be a Monferno inside a supernatural relic??"
